my brain hurts
I haven’t blogged in ages but I need to get something off my chest.
You know how you can’t get a thought/dream out of your head and you think if you say it out loud it will finally go away? Well I tried that already and now I am trying this.
A friend told me a story about someone they knew or someone one of their friends knew. Ya get the idea. I do not know this person or anything other than this little tidbit about them. So this person, we shall call her Sara for the sake of a name, had a pet boa constrictor. She LOVED this boa constrictor. She would leave it out of its cage all the time, she even slept next to it. It would stretch out next to her and sleep. One day Sara was at the vet either with the snake or not I do not recall that particular detail. She mentioned to the vet how she knew the snake loved her back because he would sleep in bed with her, all stretched out and comfy. Well, the vet freaked out. Apparently, snakes and other cold blooded animals cannot feel love. This particular snake/boa constrictor was actually measuring his lovely, owner Sara. He was measuring and waiting until he was long enough to eat his owner. The vet urged her that she needed to get rid of the snake before he became large enough to devour her. She took the advice of her vet and did give it away, but not without a lot of fanfare and tears.
So I have been having nightmares about this. I can’t even tell you exactly about what. But I wake up frightened and with a feeling of dread. The image of a girl lying next to a snake is burned into my brain. Last night I fell asleep with happy images of tiny puppy Chihuahuas in my head, we had been to the pet store and they were so cute. But I awoke at 6:30am with the same ill feeling as of late. Lets hope writing this story out will get it out of my brain.
I banish you horrible story.
